HOUSE OF LORD'S, TituasnaY, MAY 11. Mr. Saviti.k Otruy, and other Members of the Haile of Commmis, brought tip several private Bills, which wel'e read a first time. LOVAT PEER] E. Mr. Ann Wiiter to the Signet, presented th return of the Scottisli.linlges to the Order of 1e House, for examining the aged witnes764 in Scotland. Mi. Loy Err; from the office of the : lii*tor-General of Corn Returns, pres'ented an account of the tiVerage price of 'wheat for the week endink the Gth of May. The Mary of Y phaented a petition from owners and occupiers in the neighbourhood of Charing- 'roes, in favour of the Chafintl-cress• Improvertiht Bill. Petitions from *anon* _ . l7ilaces were pfeaeuted against Slavery. Lord DUDLEY and WARD presented a petition from :11er chants, IVanufacturerik, 'lid Traders, in Olasgow and its vicinity, expressirig their apprehensions at the intended measures for throw ing opill the Colonian Markets, and roingthat such measures :might not be passel/ into a law. TheietMon iias signed lifloo . persons, and expreasida hope that it *nuld receive due attoution from their Lordships. - ROMAN CATHOLICS. Earl DARNLEY presented a petition from the RenfaA' Who lies of the town of Preston, Lancashire, pray itig kr a removal of the disabilities under which fliey lahoured....44‘id ou the table. Earl GREYsaid that lie haft& similar petition tti present from a respectable and important portion of the Catholic body. The petition was signed by the-D o k e o f N orfolk an d b y ot h e r Noble men and Gentleinen of that persuasion; praying for a xepeal of the disqnitlifyitt laws which affected them as Roman .Catholics, Year after year had •he been presenting similar petitions, but without effect; and he thou'ght that unless their Lordships grant ed relief to the Catholics, the consequences, at one time of the other, would be most lameOtable. He thought that justice and policy equally required the concessiolui of those claims; and that was his opinion in:times of phiSpertty as well as of adversity. He wished to state that at the, present period, when distress' and difli culfy added much to the danger, he hoped that the prayer of the petitioners would be acceded to; an d that thereby the security of this•country would be established. The Duke of NEWCASTLE presented a petition from 'Wood bridge, in Suffolk, against any alteration M the Corti Laws, • Lord KING presented a petition from the journeymen cot ton-spinners of Manchester, praying their Lordship to release the foreign corn now in bond, ani - ttleo4o give'bis Majesty's Govern ment a discretionary power of miktitting foreign grain. His Lordshipsaid, that he agreed with Ai* petitioners in thinking that such measures would lower the prices of food, and that they would also create a demah in foiiign countries fot the manufac tures of England. Hit Lordship then presented a petition from the freemen of Worcester, praying for an alteration in the Corn Laws. PROMISSORY NOTES. Earl GROSVENOR rose for the purpose of stating that it , was not his intention this SeSsion to bring forivaid his promised measure for the more speedy iecovert of Promissory Notes. At that late period of the Session it Woolilitot be convenient to enter upon the subject; but he had not alter it his intention of bring ing it before their Lordships, whick he would do at a future period. . .. CORN LA*.Se 1 The. Earl of MALMESBURY rose for the purpose of moving the resolution of which he had given notice, and in doing se' he assured their Lordshipe, that he had undertaken the task with i `great pain and embarrassnient. It was most painfdl to him to differ on that occasion from some. Noble Friends with whose opinions he had generally coineided, and his embirrasament 1 , arose from the necessity of discussing the important sand delicate I question of the Corn Laws, at a period such as the present, when I distress pie' ailed in the country. He regretted that the sub s ject had not been taken' ttp.by some other Noble, Lord , of greater .abilities: but what enaotireged him' to Midathe the task was, 1 ' the indulgence which he had experienced on former occasions; but if be should not smeccefl in the ddly which he had 'undertaken, •he hoped the failure wddid not bnatirilosted td the cause, which he thought was that of justice, but to the insufficiency of the "advocate By some it might he c o nsidered that the ertarse which he was pursuing was an attempt ii, prejudice the question; but I sin his opinion it wait best for the Home to display its own serai -1 - meats on any important measure before it caine to it in the shape Of a Bill from another place. Two mein/sires were then before the other House of Parliament, the one to admit bonded corn to I be released, and the other giving a discretion to Government to admit the importation of grain at a fixed duty. If their Lord ships were to make any Alteration in the Bill, he understood it must fall to the ground.-44 No, no," from Lard Liver pool.)—His Lordship then said 'he would not pursue that branch of the subject but he would rake a short review of what had been done respecting the Corn Laws within the last year. The President of the Board of Trade had, in his speech iu March, 1825, when he was opening tO Parliament a scheme of liberal policy, had stated as his opinion, that the existing Corn Laws should berbvised, bet that he had no intention of proposing such alteration during that Session. However, in two Months after that declaration, there were tdo measures introduced into , Parliament, by one o f w hich 4 83 ,0 0 6 quarters o f b on d e d corn t Were admitted into the market for home consumption. The se etand was what was called the Canada Corn Bill, by which the American Colonies would be placed on a footing,with the mdther country. It was the' pleasure of theit' Lordships to limit the pie. 'lions of the latter measure, and' without further afferation. That was the dtate of the laws at the terminntinn of the kat Sell. afons of Parliament. At that time the country was in a state of Unexampled prosperity. M the cOrinneneement of the present Sessions it had been announced that all intention of interfering with the Corn Laws was to be abandoned jbr the present. Sonions, but it was intimated that some • vintage' would be proposted in the next. In that course he had agreed, be ean* he though the 4git.ittioti of the subject would bring into competition the two great interests of the country. About Pets days ago, when the distress* which preVailed in the country assumed the , character of disturbance, a Noble Martinis (Laws.. down) had soggested the propriety of ad;•Sncing it sum of money front tin.' public purse fes the purpose of relieving the sof- ferers, and urged upon his Majetityli Mittisifirs to accede to the ,Ropositiou. The Noble' Earl, at the head of his Majesty's 'treasury, stated, in replfr, that there were two sources front which the sufferers might .expect relief. The one was private subscriptions, which Were in themselves a very . indifferent source, and the second Was the Poor Laws. And upon them .be (Lord Malmesbury) thought that the greatest reliance would .., .be placed, and in reference to the Poor Laws he did not think - he stated too much when he said that the eevea-tenths of the 'Peer Rates were paid gy the landed interest. The' Noble Earl , (Liverpool)'declined aeseding to the advance of Oldie money; but he had proposed the two measures which were then nfider consideration. The one was similar to one of the measures of :the last yssr, for admitting tunnies] corn into, On market fbr home consumption, and on this' point he would *wish to-as certain whether such corn was to be admitted at' once into the market, or whether a notice was intestled to be given of .itch a prOemling. His Lordship Made no objection to that measure; but he thought there would be no - inconvenience of giving a notice or six weeks, or some such, before a large quantity of grain would he admitted into the smirker; The second had been originally to give a discretion to his Majesty's Ministers to admit foreign corn On the payment of a duty of 128. per quarter; but that was mo (IAA nap a measure less'objeetionable, because more limited. It was Stu his intention to oppose the first of them measures, but to the latter, modified as it was, that his objections applied. Ile would now state, front official returns, how much foreign corn had hive:introduced into this country since the let of last June. The bonded corn admitted under the Act of the last Session amounted to 4113,000 quarters ; and that front Canada to 95,000, snaking 528,000 quarters. If to this'were to be added the 300,000 quar ters now in bond which were to be released by the present mea sure, there would be a total of 828,000 querutaerNiron el e ven Shoal their Lo r d s hi ps grant t h e power called f or by Isis MaiejAY'l cite Ministers to i n t ro d uce 500 , 00 0 a dditional quarters , t h e w mo n ths . h whol e it t 1 pornit i nn i n the course of one y e ar, would enema to no )(stratum 1,928,000 quarters, Now the regular importatio n of fefeign corn at-thinner periods.bad been about 460,000 quarters a yiasr, so that even if the House only Passed the Bill for allowing the *duds. sion of foreign corn, there would still have been imported aatauch in eleven. months as lira year'and an hell in ordinary times,. , The Urn:" next point ram the possibility, or the probability, of a scarcity; and in order to show that no such danger was to be apprehended, he would compare the averages of former years with those of the two `last, and in order that all sbuutd be perfectly fair, he would ex clude years of war from the c:irnparison. The average price of 'cOrn in the month of Nova iffier, 1816, was 665. per, quarter. In ;May, 1616, it was 755.„ being a rise of nearly 20s.

Old fashioned people like himself Thought that it might proceed from the new commercial policy adopted, and the unprincipled spec:o44ms to which it had given rise. Others ascribed it to the state Of the currency. Was it not proper, therefore, when ,here were tiff many different opinions, to pcertain what was its ieul cause, stead of fastening at once of the Corn Laws, which he was con vinced hail nothing whatever to do with it ? And ought not inquiry to be conceded when the measures of boa Majesty's Ministers were of a nature to confirm the unfounded outcry which had prevailed?

How came four short years to produce this differti7ee ?,Th 1822, 'eighty shillings per quarter was a proper price, and n 64 it was a famine one! if what was a moderate price in one year, was to become a &toque prim in another, then there conbl be no fixed system whether en the subject of corn or, any other articles, and the same objection would apply to it ibiti'of, 128., which must be increased or reduced annually as eirckiatinees might require. It was, therefore, important to inquire, whether there had hem" 'en alteration iu the value of money, and whether it was not poa. i amble at once to establish a fixed system of Corn Laws. Corn. 'beside, was not the ally article tvhith bore a familie price, if " the %dile Earl's view' of things wde ' adopted; elotliug wits as necessary as corn, and coats, Ames, fuel, tea, education, and der , : vent'? wages, all had now reached famine prices.

His Noble Frithul wished the House to come to a declaration of its s t i n ti ewe ilH on the question ; but the declaration which he proposed was no declaration at all, for it Was so ambiguous that the ptlliel wbuld not understand what their Lerdehipa.. Higage to do, if they were to agree to the Noble Earl's propos,a, Th e state of the Corn Laws in 1815 was tlik: Until the priee'of coin arrived at 80s. there was a complete prohibition of foreitm turn. But when the price reached 80s., foreign corn me i , free of all duty. The inconveniences of this system having ken perceived, an alteration took 'plice in 184. • The protecting pride was then made 70s. when foreign cotn might be admitted for home consumption; subject to a' duty of 17s. per qua r t er for the first three mouths, and of lals. after, till the home price readied 80a., when the duty would he reduced acco rt tug to grathiated scale.
